was that the ending of the episode?
doesn't stewie have a time machine?
didn't brian say he dies by eating chocolate off the trash?
either they're ending the show or some special Christmas episode is going up[/QUOTE]
Doesn't the show contradict its own flimsy "canon" all the time anyway?

For me Scrubs takes the Price, althought that's not a good comparison since it's not even a cartoon.
"An unnamed episode will guest star Maya Rudolph as a runner whom Brian falls for and Glenn Howerton as the publisher of a children's book written by Joe. The episode is slated to air in the fall of 2014"

Once a mod spoiled Breaking Bad in the title of a thread.

[QUOTE=Gatsby;42974143]Its kind of weird how the car just sudden comes by and runs him over and doesn't stop. It even looked like it was going faster once it got near Brian.
I bet money it was Vinnie or some crazy murder plot.[/QUOTE]
Vinne kills the family one by one.
Just having Tony Sirico might make me watch it
although it most likely won't

All dogs go to heaven
this is how the show should be:
Meg goes to college. Nobody notices for like three episodes. Turns out she got into Harvard and was actually a genius the entire time but nobody noticed.
Lois dies. For real. And Stewie didn't kill her, it was either natural or a freak accident.
Peter is now depressed and working two jobs. We hardly see him but when we do he's just depressed and shit. Quagmire is often the one watching the children because he's retired now (iirc he's actually old as fuck for some reason)
Chris develops a drug habit and is never shown. We hardly see him but when we do he's a dick now.
Brian was never dead but is also depressed about Lois and becomes a deeper alcoholic and womanizer. He and Quagmire bond over the loss of Lois and their bachelor lifestyle.
Stewie is distraught over not killing Lois. He has failed his one goal, and strangely he misses his mother. He amplifies his evil but it's really just a mask for his personal crises.
So basically the show is about Stewie and Quagmire and sometimes Brian because fuck everyone else Joe can show up sometimes too
I actually enjoy Family Guy and I was interested to see how this played out, but really killing him off like that is just bad, they had the perfect opportunity to make something emotional and they just wasted it.
[QUOTE=DHB;42974173]Could've been Quagmire.[/QUOTE]
If you look at the car, strangely it looks like Brian's Prius, what i think is happening here is that Brian knew something was up in advance, the Doctor was presumably Vinny's owner, Brian had to play dead so that Vinnie would provide Stewie with the potential motivation to go back in time to "Save" Brian, how Vinny's owner "dies" is unknown, unless his death is real, or another false death to keep the loop going, by temporarily moving his owner so far that the timeline could change without him having an impact.
Either that, or Vinny Prime overhears Stewie's plan and tries to kill Brian in the past so that he'd get adopted in the current present, still seems a bit out of the loop to pick up the Hockey set from the Junkyard...unless that was REALLY alluding to how he could potentially go back in time after the time machine gets destroyed.
I'm already used to it.

Except his sound is too mature to be with stewie

I still don't understand this joke
Vinnie doesn't have the persona for a main character of the show. Just by his name alone its pretty obvious he isn't going to be a full time replacement for Brian, he will just be a throw away/side character like New Brian was. Next episode/s we will get Ghost Brian who comes back to solve his death and a plot device to return to his body either through Death, Stewie's rebuilt time machine, the scenario machine, or through some new mechanic possibly even tied to the previous one.
[QUOTE=Cabbage;42977226]I still don't understand this joke[/QUOTE]
It's a comedic webcomic about video games with famously bad writing that inexplicably decided to add a dramatic arc about the main character's girlfriend having a miscarriage

Yet to air episode
I haven't watched family guy in like two years but I guarantee stewie time travels or some shit and that's how he gets back

Chris is missing even though the rest of the main characters seem to be there. Maybe Brian comes back, Chris dies and Cleveland replaces him.
also Vinnie dies
That reminds me, didn't The Simpsons announce that they would do something similar? How did that end up?

Homer's mother died, IIRC
when were you when brain dies
i was sat at home when fred ring
'brain is die'
'no'
and you?????????????
[QUOTE=NitronikALT;42977801]Homer's mother died, IIRC[/QUOTE]
He's referring to something more recent. Homer's mom died a few years ago.
I don't really think Brian is dead for good, since there are a few episodes that have him as part of the show. So unless this episode was supposed to be the finale of the season and was basically aired out of order, not really dead yet.
To answer the other question, [sp]Stewie dismantled the time machine, and the components were unavailable, so there is no way of going back, for now.[/sp]
[QUOTE=NitronikALT;42977801]Homer's mother died, IIRC[/QUOTE]
That was way before the announcement.
So far, nobody knows who will die in Simpsons.
One thing I forgot to say in my post last night, if Seth Macfarlane is as smart as a lot of people seem to think he is (and for what its worth, he does seem it) then this is probally working exactly as planned. There are so many people discussing family guy all over the internet right now. Even if the next episode starts off with "IT WAS ALL A DREAM" or some bullshit, he has caused a lot of people who don't normally give a shit about FG to talk about it.
[QUOTE=Keychain;42974505]Apparently Stewie disassembles his time machine earlier in the episode or something like that.[/QUOTE]
This is only going to make sense for anyone who has watched the episode:
They are surely in an alternative dimension / time line. They went back in time, broke part of the time machine and then time travelled using a time machine in that universe to go back and make that universe not exist. Time travel hurts my brain.

[QUOTE=Supacasey;42974969]The entire episode was nothing but convenient outcomes to really badly tie up any possibility of him coming back. The entire episode in general was fucking awful, especially considering it was about the death of a main character.
100% attention grab because they're out of ideas.[/QUOTE]
I read somewhere that Fox has forced them (and the Simpsons) to kill off a character, if this is true it would explain why it was done so terribly tbh.
people on my facebook wall are reacting to this as if it's genuinely sad news, and saying "why" etc. I dunno how to feel about this.
I thought they would have killed peter or the damn chicken but nope its the dog always the dog. I also was hoping for someone else to die to but the show is shit and I only watch it because my little brother puts it on every weekend when its boring as hell.
